List Mgmt. 2025 Trade/FA Thread (Cont’d)

[WakeUpPies]

Bobby getting discussed as a trade option due to his off-field issues is fair game. Same happened for Taz, Dids, De Goey, Heater, Stevo, Ginni … No reasons to treat him differently to anyone else.

The unverified rumours are too far though. Just like they were for Ginni. The confirmed facts are already enough to warrant Collingwood moving them on.

Hopefully he gets the opportunity. Wish him luck

Hope he gets picked up, wish him the best of luck.

 

[Jekyll and Hyde]

Not related to Finn, but the concept of rookie list is a joke.

A rookie list should be limited to players who are under a certain age / number of years played / games played.

It should be just called a supplementary list now.

Good luck checkers

 

[AmericanMustard]

Honestly don’t understand what Melbourne is playing at but lol GL to them

 

[sideswipe]

Not a bad haul if you want to rebuild

Not great if you are a kid in this year’s draft

 

[WakeUpPies]

Good luck to Checkers. Hopefully he pulls a Taylor Adams and enjoys his $$$ while providing limited contributions on the field.

 

[HFF]

Good luck to Mihocek

I think it’s exciting with a new look tall forward mix.

Buller coming in
Mcstay should be hungry and should be played deep forward next season.

Charlie West also to get more games potentially.

Mihocek has been a wonderful servant but he looked incredibly banged up this season and at 33, it was time to invest resources elsewhere

Push out dickheads, bring in good blokes?

 

[Jekyll and Hyde]

Compo pick for checkers

 

[BillyElliott]

Compo pick for checkers

Don't think it will be much, considering his age & the $.

 

[HFF]

Compo pick for checkers

Highly unlikely.
Although anything back would be a bonus

That part I get

It’s the, are ya rebuilding or not part I don’t get. I guess they don’t think they are

 

[JuniorB]

Not a bad haul if you want to rebuild

Given it's supposed to be a weak draft, they might want to trade some into next season.
We might need more picks this year.

 

[JLC]

A good move money and security wise. I doubt he will play another final though.

 

[JuniorB]

Highly unlikely.
Although anything back would be a bonus

There was some talk that Melbourne might trade for Checkers so they don't lose compo for Spargo.

 

[Everybody Panic]

Good luck to Cekkers! Has been immense for a long time. Deserves a little payday at the end. Wonder if WHE retiring made the decision slightly easier for him. Also think it's not a bad loss for our list, gives some more opportunity to our younger forwards.

 

[TradeDraft]

Thanks for great Career Brody but time has gone past him

Gives West a Good Chance to make the Best 22 in 2026

 

[sideswipe]

That part I get

It’s the, are ya rebuilding or not part I don’t get. I guess they don’t think they are

And next year they’ll likely be paying Oliver more than Miho!

 

[manicpie]

I wonder if Melbourne still wants some sort of trade for Checkers

 

[SchuPie]

Thanks Checkers
You gave your all every game
You helped us win a flag
Forever a Pie
Good luck at the Dees, you deserve it

 

[TradeDraft]

Won’t as signed as a Free Agent

 

[stormskye]

Not a bad haul if you want to rebuild

They had a similar one in 2020
